A copy project starts with research, not writing. Before I write a landing page I'm reading the client's reviews, sales calls, support tickets and competitors, looking for the exact words customers use for their problem, because that language converts better than anything I'd invent. Then I pin down one reader, one offer and one action, and build the page around them: a headline that names the problem, proof, objections answered, and a call to action that's hard to miss. Emails are their own craft, subject lines that get opened and sequences that move someone from curious to buying over a week. I write a draft, then cut it by a third. Most clients get two rounds of revisions, and I push back when feedback is about taste rather than results, with the data to back it up. Some of my best work is rewriting pages that already exist and measuring the difference. I price by project, with a deposit up front, and a couple of clients pay me a monthly retainer for ongoing emails and ads.
